I'd save the money on that scope and run a Leupold. I have owned both and it seems everything gets a leupold these days. Won't throw the balance off quite as bad as that heavy 6500 will. Plus with the money you'll save you can spend some extra time at the range.
Would be hard to be a 7mm mag for long range work. Good bullets with high BC's. Never really warmed up to the cartridge myself but note sure why.
My LR rig is a 300 Win Mag currently throwing 200 grain Accubonds. Hard to beat that as well.
